Flight Attendant Training Question

I had a young lady come in to my office today asking if I knew anywhere she could get training to become a flight attendant. Does anyone know where to get that training, what training is needed and if there is a need for flight attendants anywhere? I would like to point her in the right direction.

Thanks,
John
 
Flight attendants are trained at the airline that they are hired at. I intern at an airline in the flight (pilot) training department, and the In-flight (flight attendant) training is in the same office.
 
yes, I believe Airtran is hiring. they have an information session in a week or so I believe....in Atlanta. They had one session a couple of days ago.
 
If she wants to fly airline, each airline has it's own training department. Paying any money to any one who claims to train you for airline flying is a scam. You will be trained by the airline that hires you, they want to personally inject you with their own kool-aid. Most regionals are currently hiring, go to the airlines' websites for current hiring information. SWA, Airtran, Continental are also hiring, and United was accepting applications, I don't know if they still are or not.

Now, if she wants to go Corporate, that's a whole other ball game. Generally, to fly corportate you've got to go through flight attendant training at a reputable corporate training facility. FACTS, and FlightSafety are the two most recognized and highly accepted training environments for corporate flight attendants. Corporateflyer.net has lots of info on being a corportate flight attendant.

You never mentioned an age? Some colleges have a Flight Attendant program, could be a good way to see if she will like it.

Corporate Flight Courses can be pricey, I know the one at Alteon cost about $2200......
